Java VS Go

yeah I agree. I think it's because they pretty much allow contributions of algorithms from various people and the code review standards are not super high. I recall at one point the BFS algorithm in Java actually used an ArrayList (roughly equivalent to std::vector) for the queue, which is silly because popping from the front is O(N), so I had to submit a fix for that:

https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Java/pull/3231

but I agree that basic low-hanging issues like this (and the exponential-time fibonacci that another commenter pointed out) really prevents me from taking this repo very seriously

here you can use of the ciphers

I would start by learning about base class libraries: What is java and then study how some algorithms might be implemented by looking at this repository

https://the-algorithms.com/language/go and code that goes with it: https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Go. I was reviewing some algo theory a while back and ended up just creating a java project with my own implementation of heap, tree traversals and so on. It's a really simple way to try to get familiar with some core concepts of any language. Just food for thought. Also all the exercises are pretty self contained. Eventually you most likely want to go beyond this but it'll get your feet wet.

I followed your link to This.
